Are you a Junior Cert Geography Teacher?

Do you want to take your students on a field trip?

Due to the huge demand for the services of the Education Centre in Wicklow Mountains National Park, many schools are unable to get a booking. This worksheet has been designed to enable teachers to bring their class to Glendalough to do their own self-guided field trip. To assist you, teachers’ notes are also provided.

This map shows the location of the Park and some of the surrounding towns and villages. Villages are indicated by small green circles - towns and cities by larger ones. The two major roads which run alongside the mountains are also depicted, the N81 to the west and the N11 to the east . The irregular black lines are county boundaries.
